Jan. 14, 15, 16, 17 ACEOs

Jan 14 ACEO: Ben used to have a Veiled Chameleon named 'Jill' many years ago.

Jan 15 ACEO: Veiled Chameleons are such fun pets, and the spectrum of colors and designs they can change their skin into amazed us to no end.

Jan 16 ACEO: Veiled Chameleon - as they mature, their "horn" (or veil) on top grows too, and they keep adding new pigments to their skin.

Jan 17 ACEO: A male Veiled Chameleon that is feeling aggressive puffs himself up and displays BRIGHT colors. Would you mess with this guy?!

Many people don't know that a chameleon's colors are not so much about blending in (although they are good at that, too), but often about their mood, the temperature, and many other factors.

Jan. 3 ACEO


...in Germany we used to light fireworks and sparklers for New Years... fond memories...

A few of my readers have asked me what an ACEO is.
ACEO stands for "Art Cards Editions and Originals." These little 2.5"x3.5" gems are highly collectible pieces of art, and can be made in any variety of materials (watercolor, oil, ink, acrylics, pencil, collage, even fabric). They can be traded and collected, or sold for pennies all the way up to thousands of dollars.
